10/10 Excellent

"Good location. On the strip, but on the less traffic side. Hotel staff was helpful, but could have been dressed more professional. Front desk area was a little disorganized, but did not hinder them from doing their job. Parking is a little awkward. Room was clean and comfortable. A few minor repairs could have been done in the bathroom, but wasn’t an issue. Overall I would stay there again."
